A Pull-Apart Bread Worth Sharing (Even if You Dont Want to)

*Monkey bread’s first American incarnation was as a mass of buttery dinner rolls, baked together so they could be pulled apart at the table. (Pull-apart bread was another common name.) The recipe became popular in California, where Nancy Reagan was a fan. Her recipe made the rounds in the 1980s.

It quickly picked up sugar and cinnamon, possibly from a Hungarian coffee cake that many bakeries made at the time. This was back before matcha and açaí, when Americans regularly — even daily — sat down for coffee and cake.

The pastry chef Claudia Fleming, who runs an inn on the North Fork of Long Island, said that monkey bread was now decidedly in the breakfast pastry category, and that she occasionally tries to put one on the buffet.'>>>
